Weed Spotters Network application form

What is Weed Spotters and why should you join?

The Weed Spotters Network Queensland is a citizen science collaboration between the Queensland Herbarium, the Department of Agriculture and Fisheries and local governments with funding support from the Land Protection Fund.

Weed Spotters aim to find, identify and document new occurrences of potential weeds at an early stage so that preventative action can be taken.

Weed spotters receive an e-mail bulletin each month with information on current and emerging weeds, updates on Weed Spotter activities in each region along with a list of regional Weed Spotter contacts.
